I just discovered the safest and effective way to block Yahoo Messenger Ads for ANY VERSION. UPDATE: This still works for version 9.0.02162!
- NO need to edit the registry.
- NO need for EXE Patches that has Trojans.
- ALL YOU NEED is Notepad.
Block Ads By Blocking the Ad Server:
1. Open Notepad.
(In Vista/Win7, Run Notepad as an Administrator)
2. Open the following file:
C:Windowssystem32driversetchosts
3. Add the following line at the end of the text file:
127.0.0.1 insider.msg.yahoo.com
What to do if Yahoo Changes Their Ad Server
I tested this since Yahoo Messenger 9.0.0.922 BETA. It worked.
This is because all ads come from "insider.msg.yahoo.com", which is the Ad Server.
Now, when you notice the ads coming back, it means Yahoo changed their Ad Server. To block them again:
1. Explore C
rogram FilesYahoo!MessengerCache
2. Open urls.xml
3. Internet Explorer will display the XML file.
From there you can see lines similar to these:
href="insider.msg.yahoo.com/client_a…" id="Messenger Ad"
href="insider.msg.yahoo.com/client_a…" id="Messenger Idle Ad"
In this case, the Ad Server Address is "insider.msg.yahoo.com"
If it's not, copy the new Ad Server Address,
and update the "hosts" file.

I just found a workaround that absolutely makes Firefox 3 Smooth Scrolling very very smooth and even better than Firefox 2!
- No need to install add-ons.
- No need to wait long for a fix from Mozilla.
- ALL YOU NEED is Notepad.
Fix Smooth Scrolling By Editing UserContent.css:
1. Go to your Firefox 3 profilechrome folder.
2. You should see a file "userContent-example.css".
Copy this file and rename it to "userContent.css".
3. Open "userContent.css" in Notepad.
4. Paste the following code at the end of the file:
5. Save the file.
What to do if Mozilla Patches this Bug
After I made the changes, I restarted Firefox,
and tested scrolling on starfeeder.gameriot.com/ and www.starcraft2.com/.
They are not scrolling choppy anymore!
But sooner or later, Mozilla will patch this Firefox bug,
and we want to restore the ability for Firefox
to scroll with fixed background images.
All you have to do is:
1. Open "userContent.css" in Notepad.
2. Remove the code we pasted in Step 4.
3. Save the file and close it.
But wait, there's more!
If you want a faster and smoother Firefox 3 browser:
1. Try Reinstalling Flash. Go to Mozilla Support page, and follow the instructions in the 4th Post by Bo.
2. Install the AdBlock Plus Add-On. Not only will you scroll faster, but your pages will load faster without the ads.
